Chapter 404: Chapter 256: What Pettiness, This is Called Being Prepared in Advance! (Please Subscribe)_2

Under the cover of night, he stood motionless at the entrance of the Mountain Villa, as if possessed by a ghost, looking somewhat terrifying.

Duan Yun rushed over and also froze in place.

In front of the Mountain Villa’s gate hung a person.

Yes, this person was bound with red rope in a complicated manner and hung in front of the door, a piece of red candle placed beneath them. In the dim light, the scene looked somewhat terrifying and yet somewhat alluring.

This was because the method of binding somewhat resembled that used for erotic play between men and women.

Who had strung up a person here?

Duan Yun walked over.

At that moment, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

Because it was not until now that he realized this person was not real.

More like a paper effigy, by the candlelight, he could see the supporting bamboo strips inside.

However, the skin of this paper figure seemed like real human skin, which was why he couldn’t tell at first.

The key point was, this face actually bore some resemblance to his own.

Damn it, are they provoking me on purpose?

At this moment, the sharp-eyed Shen Ying couldn’t help but say, "There is a note there."

With a whoosh, Duan Yun cut the red rope, and the fake person fell to the ground.

The note was stuck to the back of the fake person’s neck, previously unclear due to the dim environment.

Duan Yun reached for it, and suddenly a series of flying needles shot out, aimed directly at his face.

"Be careful!"

At the moment Shen Ying warned him, Duan Yun’s forehead had already released Breaking Body Sword Energy, deflecting the flying needles.

When the flying needles hit the ground, the spring grass quickly withered.

Such poisonous needles!

Such a sinister tactic!

Duan Yun picked up the note in his hand and read it carefully, seeing two lines written on it.

"Hearing you possess a pair of beauties, I longed for a glimpse, and they indeed suit my heart’s desire. My yearning for them mirrors my yearning for you, ever constant in my thoughts, hoping you will not forget my adoration.

—Yours truly, with another bow."

"Yearn for your mother’s eggs, I’ll be right over to send you on your way!" Duan Yun said ominously.

Now it was certain, Ziyu and Ning Qing had been taken by people from Mingyu Palace.

The other party had purposely left a lookalike fake person and the note. This was not simply a matter of disrespect; it was a mocking challenge.

Duan Yun was still immersed in fury, when he suddenly felt the voice of snowflakes fluttering.

It was already spring, where could the snow be coming from.

At that moment, Murong saw the note in Duan Yun’s hand, suddenly knelt on the ground, and cried out "No!"

"Ning Qing! How can I go on living without you!"

"Do you know! I love you for ten thousand years!"

"My love for you will never change!"

...

For a time, everyone listening to Murong’s mad-like singing had an illusion of snowflakes hitting the ground.

With a slap, Murong’s impassioned and sorrowful singing came to an abrupt halt.

Duan Yun gave him another slap, causing the tears welling up in Murong’s eyes to fan out.

"When I used to practice martial arts, I wasn’t trying to prove how great I was, just didn’t want to be kicked around like a ball, not even afforded a shred of respect!"

"Mingyu Palace, you really want to play it like this, huh?"

Duan Yun said, grabbing Murong’s collar with a serious look, "Calm down, man up and come with me to rescue them, then slaughter these Mad Women until their blood runs like rivers."

Murong looked at him, tears still in his eyes, and said, "But what should we do?"

Mingyu Palace is a Martial Arts myth, a holy land of Martial Arts, and a forbidden place, not just mysterious but full of danger.

For a time, Murong had no idea what to do.

Feng Ling’er and Shen Ying fell into thought.

"There are no men in Mingyu Palace, not even the gatekeepers, all women. Every two years on the second day of the second lunar month, when the dragon raises its head, Mingyu Palace selects female slaves in Tianliang Town. Some of these female slaves remain so forever, but some are taken for testing. If they catch the eye during the testing, they could be taken in as disciples of Mingyu Palace." Duan Yun said earnestly.

At that moment, Murong, Shen Ying, and Feng Ling’er all showed surprised expressions.

Murong asked nervously, "How do you know this so well?"

After all, Duan Yun was a rookie in the Martial World, with very little knowledge of its secrets, which was one of the few areas where he was stronger than Duan Yun.

Duan Yun explained, "Of course, I bought this information with silver. After all, Mingyu Palace once pursued you and disrespected me. Although at the time I heeded your suggestion and temporarily let it go, I couldn’t sleep well, so I went and bought some information."

"I never thought we’d actually use it."

At this moment, the Murong brothers completely understood.

Anyone who had ever offended Duan Yun would find it difficult to be removed from his little blacklist; even if temporarily forgotten, it was just a matter of time. Should they do something to annoy him again, their names would be reactivated on his list.

The nicer way of putting it was being precautious and ready to strike down evil demons at all times; the less nice way was that it showed pettiness. Those who had offended him were likely going to be on his mind forever.

The thought of being on Duan Yun’s mind forever was terrifying.

Yet, the dummy on the ground, the sinister poison needles, and the provocative note all proved that Mingyu Palace was not at all afraid of this terror.

That was what made Mingyu Palace terrifying.

It always struck a heavy blow when you least expected it.

"What should we do?" asked the Murong brothers, still confused.

Even with this knowledge, they had no clue what to do next.

Duan Yun’s mind, flickering with extraordinary wisdom, said, "We set off now; we can still make it in time for the selection in Tianliang Town. Remember how we saved the Qiongling Sect?"

The Murong brothers, dumbfounded, said, "But we were gatekeepers then, and you said Mingyu Palace only admits women, even the gatekeepers are women."

Suddenly, it dawned on him, exclaiming, "I get it! You’re Old Demon Duan. Hurry and turn me into a woman!"

"We can both turn into women and blend in!"

Duan Yun looked disgusted, "I told you, my legitimate cultivation techniques can’t turn a man into a woman, but we must blend in."

"How do we blend in?" the Murong brothers asked, puzzled.

Duan Yun looked toward Feng Ling’er and said, "Of course, disguise ourselves as women to blend in."

Feng Ling’er appeared troubled and said, "Disguise skills can make you look like women, especially since you’re good-looking, it will be easier. But if Mingyu Palace does some checking, you might give yourselves away."

She then looked toward the chest area of Duan Yun and Murong brothers.

Shen Ying said, "I know a way to temporarily enlarge a man’s chest, so even if they check it won’t give them away."

Feng Ling’er, looking at Shen Ying’s flat chest, doubted, "Are you sure?"

Shen Ying then whispered a few words to Duan Yun.

Duan Yun looked skeptical but nodded and pressed seven acupoints on his body and began rhythmic breathing exercises.

In the blink of an eye, his chest miraculously bulged out.

Everyone was stunned.

Shen Ying said, "This can last for six hours a day; just repeat it daily."

"But what if they check ’down there’?"

Feng Ling’er glanced at Duan Yun’s crotch.

Having taken a sneaky look before, they know that ’thing’ wasn’t easy to hide.

Duan Yun said, "We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. I’ll see if I can come up with a technique to hide it on the way."

"That can be invented?"

Everyone was shocked.

But then they remembered this was Duan Yun. It seemed possible.

"Mingyu Palace might not check so rigorously; let’s blend in and see," explained Duan Yun.

At that moment, Shen Ying skeptically asked, "Since it’s only women allowed, why don’t we women just directly infiltrate?"

"Right," Feng Ling’er also looked at Duan Yun.

Duan Yun relented, "You’re no match for the Mad Woman. The Murong brothers can last nearly a stick of incense under my control, you would only last for half."

"I don’t believe it!"

"Neither do I!"

Shen Ying and Feng Ling’er disagreed with confidence.

But their confidence slowly deflated, and their previously perked chests settled.

Duan Yun looked at them with a touch of tenderness and said, "Ziyu and Ning Qing are in trouble; you can’t risk your safety as well. After we rescue Ziyu and Ning Qing, you’ll still need to be our backup on the outside."

Shen Ying pondered, "Let’s not talk about whether we should go or not, let’s first see what trouble you may encounter."

Feng Ling’er said, "You guys, posing as women, should hide ’that thing’ well. Soon, you may have to share rooms and beds with other female slaves, use the same outhouse, and bathe in the same place..."

Meanwhile, the initially morose Murong brothers perked up upon hearing this, exclaiming, "With so many problems to solve, why aren’t you hurrying to make us human skin masks?"

"Time waits for no one!"

Duan Yun nodded, wholeheartedly in agreement.

Suddenly, both were eager to proceed!

Mingyu Palace, the Yuzhu Twins are coming!
